KCDC earns ‘Website of the Year’ honors for 2018

The website for Knoxville’s Community Development Corporation (KCDC) has earned recognition as Website of the Year in 2018 in a statewide competition.

The Tennessee Association of Housing and Redevelopment Authorities (TAHRA) announced the winners at the 2018 TAHRA Annual Awards held in April in Murfreesboro.

KCDC’s website won in the Extra Large Public Housing Agency category. The judges considered the following criteria: color and design, innovation, content, technology, interactivity, copywriting and user friendliness.

“The KCDC website is our front door to residents, applicants, vendors and stakeholders,” KCDC Executive Director and CEO Ben Bentley said. “We are grateful to be recognized by TAHRA for the quality of our online communications with these important groups.”

The site is now part of a regional competition with members of the Southeastern Regional Council (SERC) of the National Association of Housing and Redevelopment Officials (NAHRO).
